Hey startup founders! I'd like to volunteer for your startup either in office or remotely for 3 days. I live in Vancouver Canada, and I'm currently a university student at SFU; so when I can't commute, I'll work for you at home.<p>I do web development, including design and programming (HTML, CSS, JS, Ruby on Rails). And I also play music and have performed in numerous contests and competitions (live looping; beatbox and guitar).<p>Email me at zhao6518[at]gmail.com if you are interested.<p>Thanks!
I'm curious, why for three days? I can't imagine you could accomplish much in three days (at least, I couldn't) since you need to setup your environment, get accesses, familiarize yourself with the release system, etc...
Pick up your favorite framework in the open-source community and contribute to that - either via code, tests, documentation or helping users. This you can continue for weeks and will help you in the long run.
Not a startup, but open source. I'd love to have you hack on Huginn for a couple of days! <a href="https://github.com/cantino/huginn" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/cantino/huginn</a>
Hey, I own www.searchtempest.com and www.autotempest.com. And we're actually in Victoria, BC! I expect I could find something for you to do for a day or three if you're interested. Could even have lunch or something if you want to take the ferry over. Feel free to email me through one of our sites' contact pages.
